BTN is a pretty solid TAG, running 17/12/3 over about 100 hands. My stats are pretty similar, something like 18/14/3. We both know that we're thinking players. CO is absolutely terrible, with stats around 50/0/0.

Thoughts on the turn action? I'm honestly pretty confused about how I should have played this. Should I keep firing, as a semi-bluff/possibly for value? Should I check/call? Raise?

A big part of what confuses me here is that I don't know what the villain would just call the flop with. Again, he seems very solid - if he were a goofy calling station I'd have an easier time believing that he hit his flush. Against a calling station I'd probably make a crying call on the turn, and then check/fold the river if no heart came.
